“God sends no one away empty
except those who are full of themselves” (D.L. Moody).
In general the American
culture as a whole is extremely full of itself.
Commercials on television cater to instant gratification and
consumerism. Movies focus on how to
satisfy our own cravings. We cannot even
walk through a grocery store without being bombarded with ways to please our
own desires. In short, our culture
trains us to have a life centered on us, a very dangerous focus given the
eternal consequences of such a life.
This Sunday morning we will
begin a series on 2 Timothy, exploring what God has to say about a life
centered not on ourselves, but on Christ alone.
What difference does a life centered on Christ have in our daily
lives? How do we grow closer to Christ? What do we need to do to help others in their
daily spiritual life?
Join us this week at Elm
Creek Community as we seek God’s truth and gospel message. May the Spirit prepare us to hear and be
sharpened by God’s Word.
Striving to make Christ known,
Mark
